I don't think so... As we know by now, even sharing microkernels with
other systems is not realistic -- I would guess that it's even harder
for higher-level code.

Also, I don't really see why it would be a better candidate for code
sharing than any other multiserver systems...

Ugh, that alone would be sufficient reason to avoid it.

I wish I had seen this earlier -- could have cleared up some
misconceptions...
